Soda bread is as easy to make as mixing flour, baking soda, salt and buttermilk into a dough, shaping it into a loaf and then baking it until it’s lightly golden brown and has that amazing fresh baked bread aroma that fills your home! For this soda bread I mix in plenty of cheddar cheese along with rosemary which adds a fabulous flavour! It only takes 30 minutes to make this cheddar and rosemary Irish soda bread which makes is so easy that you can make it even on a busy weeknight!

Now this is my kind of bread!
I can't believe how good this looks! Happy St Patty's day!
I think I could eat the whole loaf!
Amazing! Do you know if it would work to try to translate this into a g-f bread? I'd love to try it.
I made this with dinner tonight and I can't believe how easy it was. It was such a hit, everyone kept complimenting it. Very tasty, thanks Kevin
I made this bread today gluten free!! It was great!! So happy with the results. I used my gluten free flour blend and it turned out perfect. Thanks so much for such a simple recipe that was easy to adapt to gluten free baking!!
So obviously St. Patrick's day has passed, but I am dying for a loaf of this! So good year-round.
Do you think this would bake well in a cast iron skillet in the oven?
Scarlett: Yes, a cast iron skillet will work perfectly! Enjoy!
What type of pan do I use to bake this?
I use a jelly roll pan but pretty much any pan, even a cast iron pan will work. Enjoy!
